Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to serve as permanent artificial tooth roots. Once the implant integrates with the bone (osseointegration), a custom crown, bridge, or denture is attached, creating a natural-looking and fully functional tooth replacement.
Turkey offers dental implants from premium brands (Straumann, Nobel Biocare, MIS) at 50-70% less than European prices. Turkish implantologists perform high volumes of implant procedures, including complex cases like All-on-4 and All-on-6 full-arch restorations.
A single implant placement takes 30-60 minutes. However, the full treatment requires 2 trips: the first for implant placement, and the second (3-6 months later) for crown attachment after osseointegration. Some clinics offer same-day implants with immediate loading for suitable candidates.
